Morning,
I am asking for advice on whether my 2 kids qualify to apply for British Citizenship. They are 10 (born 2010) and 13 (born 2007). Preferable to Visas.
My wife and I both have our British Passports. We live in South Africa and are planning to move to the UK in the next year or two. Dependant on Covid19 restrictions & sporadic violence in our area, which is still continuing from last week.
I was born 1974 in SA and recently got my British Citizenship via UKM application. My Grandfather was born in the UK and my Mother was born in SA.
My wife was born in 1976 in SA too. Her Mother was born in London. But my wife was registered at the British consulate in SA before she was 1 year old (in 1977) and has had a British Passport ever since, along with a British Birth certificate that her Mom used to take her over to England for a few months.
So both my kids have British Citizen parents and British Citizen Grandparents. From what I have read I am British by descent. But having been registered so young I think my wifes situation might be different.
If they do qualify, then do I use the MN1 application?
If they do not qualify, which Visa do we apply for to take them over? Child Visa / Dependant Visa / Ancestral Visa / or ILR...etc.
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks
